HELPS ARRIVE (THANKS)

On behalf of humankind, thanks: helps are pledged from many other countries for the needs the U.S. now has due to Hurricane Katrina damage and even more importantly, helps are now arriving to alleviate the suffering for the people remaining in New Orleans (among others elsewhere).

HOWARD PLEDGES $10M ASSISTANCEAustralian’s Prime Minister offers help and reaffirms “very, very close relationship with the United States.”Good on ya’, mate.

Suggestion here: consumers make a special effort to patronize these companies, to keep the circle going ’round.

I read that some people find the news coverage problematic about the Hurricane Katrina Apocalypse (understandable, is my point), but to my view, FOX News has done/is doing a remarkable job of covering the events of the past week. I’ve been pondering how the two FOX reporters (Shepard Smith and ….can picture his face but cannot recall his name, but both these FOX reporters have provided remarkable coverage) have survived and managed in their New Orleans’ based coverage, right in the heart of the worst of things. Truly remarkable work.
